Aristeidis Voliotis is a NCAS Research Scientist at the University of Manchester's Department of Earth and Environmental Science within the Faculty of Science and Engineering. His research focuses on the formation, transformation, and health impacts of atmospheric pollutants using advanced methodologies such as the Manchester Aerosol Chamber and mass spectrometry. He investigates pollutants from biomass burning, cooking, cleaning products, and plant emissions, with a particular emphasis on linking atmospheric chemistry to biological effects through in-vitro and in-vivo studies. His teaching includes undergraduate Atmospheric Composition modules.
Voliotis co-supervises numerous PhD projects exploring pollutant impacts on lung health, aerosol toxicity, and industrial collaborations (e.g., ImmuOne, DEKATI, Sygenta). He leads and participates in funded projects like GRIM-SAF (aviation non-CO₂ impacts) and TOX-PEST (pesticide-derived aerosol toxicity), demonstrating expertise in interdisciplinary research at the intersection of atmospheric science and toxicology. His work contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to environmental health and climate action.
Education includes a PhD in Earth, Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences (University of Manchester, 2021), MSc in Environmental Chemistry (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, 2017), and BSc in Environmental Science (University of the Aegean, 2013). External roles include visiting researcher at The Cyprus Institute (2017) and research assistantships in Greece (2015-2016).
Research highlights include developing novel sampling methods for pollutant exposure studies and characterizing ice nucleation abilities of biomass burning aerosols. His articles span pesticide volatility analysis, biomass burning aerosol chemistry, and urban pollution sources, reflecting a commitment to advancing both fundamental and applied environmental science.
